THE CROOKS.
A. j. Wilson and Ruby Wilson Hus-
band and Wife - Mrs. Wilson
Discharged.

United States Commissioner Bur-
! ford's court convened this afternoon
at o'clock TO listen TO the conclusion
of the Gainesville postofllce robbery
case, in which a. j. Wilson, Mrs. Ruby
Wilson and G. w. Thompson are ar
raigned.
Justice Nance, of Fort Worth, was
placed upon the stand, andhanded the
marriage certificate, which he said he
identified as an instrument done in
his Office at Fort Worth, though the
writing was that of his assistant. He
performed the marriage ceremony for
Miss Gertrude Clark and Jas. Taylor,
as stated in the certificate. His atten-
ton was then called TO Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson. lie said: al think that is the
lady, and that is the gentleman. am
satisfied they are the parties married,
though | am not very well acquainted
with them and can't be positive, but
am satisfied they are the parties mar
ried'
United States Attorney Pearce
stated that he had nothing to
say this time concerning the
male parties and little concerning
the female, except the amount of bail
and the character OF The security. He
denounced the proposition that be-
cause Mrs. Wilson was married wo-
man she was not guilty of crime, a
friction in common law and so laid
down in the statutes. lie read authori-
ties on this point, Jurgc Crawford
took issue with Mr.. Pearce, and MAIN
tanned that the wife was presumed in
law to know nothing Of the move
ments of her husband in crime of this
character as it had been presented in
this court, and could not be consider
ed party TO the crime. The
court held a. j. Wilson and c. w.
Thompson to bail in the sumof $4,000
each, and discharged Ruby Wilson,
on the ground that she was not
party to the theft, and only occupied
the house as Wilson's wife, and was
not in possession of the stolen goods.
That the key note of the
whole affair was the inquiry Wilson
and Thompson made of Chiva-
lier about the mails and if any one
slept in the office at night, and the
woman was not implicated, in that
the government had failed to show
that she was party to it, except that
she was in the house when these pre-
sumable stolen goods were found. The
Colonel defended his female client elo-
quently and learnedly.
Judge Burford made quite little
talk, giving his reasons for his decis-
ion in the case.

There were 2l criminals in the dis
trict court this morning. Their cases
were called and set, and in instances
where they had no attorney, such were
appointed. After the list had been
exhausted one man was left. Judge
Aldredge said to the clerk "this man is
not on your list" "Thcre is no indict-
ment against him" The county attor-
ney was called, who stated thai the
grand jury failed to find an indict-
mcnt against him. OF course he was
discharged. John Hartman was his
name. It's pretty tough to lay in jail
for five weeks without cause.

When Judge Aldrcdge granted the
writ of injunction and decided in fa-
vor of the Dallas Street Railway, he
left il to the city council to say upon
which side of Main street the track
should be laid. The company asks
the council to name the side and sug
gesting the center of the street. The
property holders along the street have
protested against the railway compa-
ny laying its track on either side, but
to take the center. There is nothing
left for the, council tosdo but name the
center, and then street car track
along the side of Main street would
not only be ridiculous but damaging
in the extreme to the business men.

Cemetery and County.

Mr.. EDIToR-We agree with ''Vestry-
man" as to political control of cemetery.
One of the greatest consultations of death
would be removed If our release from
politics beyond the grave was not assured.
We are bedeviled enough by politics in
life without being buried politically But
as we have in politics log rolling some pc.
litical pile dTfUiag could be permitted out
side the cemetery. As we pay an out
rageous tax to the county it is the county
who should build bridge from the ceme-
terry across College creek as a convenience
to the public, as increasing the taxable
basis, and as protection to the cemetery.
As long as the cemetery and its negh
bOrhoOd is isolated and secluded it will
be almost impossible to prevent the dis
graceful dissertation of its precincts by
vicious or abandoned persons. BY extend
ing Northwest street as an attractive ave-
nue. into the county, connecting with the
road now leading toward the Finkbine
Berry farm and crossing the creek by a
good bridge or causeway, q thoroughfare
would be created which would effectually
protect the cemetery; as disorder and vice
shun the observation of constant passers.
That quarter of the town would be i'm
proved aud the country beyond op-
ened to the world. Such a road
could be made an attraction of Annapolis
il extended towards Round Bay, giving
an opportunity to our citizens to enjoy
the beauty of the south side of the Severn
at present an unknown region, but really
most attractive as to soil and picturesque
ness. This with the Bay shore road would
give direct drive from Bay Ridge to
Round Bay and develop both county and
city
As to the bridge the people of Annapo-
lis have a right to demand its construc-
ton by the county as q small return of
the enormous and disproportionate sum
exacted from our patient taxpayers.
Twenty thousand year make $500, 900
in ten years, enough to build city such
as ouIsl-and what Is there to show for it,
Perhaps the excitemen and energy Of our
elections, fractional fights involving human
life even, but no public benefit or aid to
popular advancement Truly the roads
have been literally supervised, that is,
0uer looked. Either we must get from
Anne Arundel the worth of our money or
SO place Ii as TO have areturn-separate If
need be, but justice anyway People are
getting tired of circus that costs SIS, 900
year TO look on, even If there are two
rings and the riders change horses very
often. Positively our last appearance
would be q welcome announcement. In
the mean time give US our bridge.
